New York City-based Risk Control Stra­tegies has created a proprietary intelligence practice to safeguard clients who travel internationally. The International Travel Intelligence Network provides intelligence needed to safeguard human life while traveling. The company uses proprietary resources from around the world to provide critical intelligence regarding the destination to include areas of travel, alerts and warnings, and overall crime and environmental issues. Also included is information on safety, health, lodging, transportation, and communication concerns related to terrorism and religious, political, and social tensions. The network will identify restricted travel areas so travelers can avoid them and adjust itineraries for maximum safety.
